Algueira Mencia 2025

This dry red wine from the D.O. Ribeira Sacra is made entirely from the Mencía grape by the Algueira winery. It features intense aromas of red and black fruits, accompanied by a distinct mineral note of graphite and a balanced acidity on the palate.

Key facts

  • Grape variety: Mencía
  • D.O. / Region: D.O. Ribeira Sacra
  • Winery: Algueira
  • Soil / Altitude: Slate and schist, south-facing

The vineyard

The grapes come from vineyards grown on south-facing slopes with slate and schist soils. This environment benefits from a Mediterranean microclimate with Atlantic influence, which allows for optimal ripening while maintaining the natural freshness of the fruit.

Ideal combination

Why buy it

If you are looking for a dry red wine with a well-defined Atlantic character, this is an ideal choice for your cellar. Its fresh and balanced profile makes it a versatile companion for various dining occasions. You can buy Algueira Mencia 2025 online directly from our shop to enjoy the authentic character of this Galician region.

Nuttiness to the nose, but slightly sharper taste. Low tannins and good aftertaste. The wine tastes close to its origin.

Youthful bright and fresh. Lacks layers but it's easy drinking and superbly fruity. Nose: cherry, strawberry, pomegranate, and a touch of herbal and earthy notes. Palate: very fresh with vibrant acidity, medium body, medium- tannin.

(3.5) Mencia Joven from Ribeira Sacra. Quite intense and meaty nose. Med(-) bodied, more fruit-forward, hight acidity, crunchy, flavors of red berries, violets, minerals and some smoke. Seems being unbalanaced or needs more time. Fruity and tart finish.

Fermented in stainless steel, therefore, no oak. Nose is spice, red fruits, herbs, palate is tangy, tart raspberry, cherry, white pepper and forest freshness, mild tannins, lifted acidity, finish is long with lingering fruits. Still young, racy and has grits, nice depth and presence. 3,7

Slightly acidic nose that belies the smoothness of this wine. Slight oak with hints of berries with a tartness that was not to my palate. I wanted to like this, yet just wasn't to my tasting.

Violet color, little rim variation. Strawberries and crushed stones on the nose. Very light on the front palette with flavors of sour cherry, strawberries, hibiscus, lemon, sour orange. High acids and light tannins. This has some variation from the typical Mencia as it is lighter and more feminine. Developed well with air. Very interesting.

Young, light and fruity. Not much body. Not much complexity. Can't imagine it particularly developing, but straightforward and pleasant. Had it with salt and pepper squid for which it was an adequate foil, followed by steak for which it lacked the necessary punch.
